    This is a Northwoods Carnival Glass Bowl that is more than 120 years old. My mother is 95 and it belonged to her mother as a young girl. I have no other information. I am hoping that someone "out there" can enlightened me as to it's history.

      Beautiful color!!!

      I see what looks to me like "Persian Medallions" on the inside.

      this one appears to be Fenton #920 Grape and Cable/Persian Medallion c1911. Northwood and Fenton each made very similar Grape and Cable patterns around the same timeframe, and most Northwood glass is marked with an encircled 'N'..
